Good points. It's hard to tell if an actual chart projection like a mercator was employed or if it was some other rough approximation. I understand that they would want to avoid the whole issue of great circle routes versus rhumb line over large distances. I haven't actually measured the latitude scale, but it seems odd that there would be that much discrepancy with the actual value. All pretty much irrelevant anyway. I apologize for my pedantic reply.
